Give GM The Money
Give GM the money they need now to retool and roll out
alternative energy vehicles. I heard Dave Barthmuss of
GM speak at Hollywood Goes Green. GM is on the right
track. Our Nation needs to support them. They will pay
the money back. This is an investment in Made in the USA.

DAVE BARTMUSS, GROUP MANAGER--WESTERN REGION,
ENVIRONMENT & ENERGY COMMUNICATIONS, GENERAL MOTORS
With LESLIE GOLDMAN, YOUR ENCHANTED GARDENER,
at HOLLYWOOD GOES GREEN, an epic two-day GREEN SUMMIT
that took place December 8-9, 08, at the UNIVERSAL HILTON.
Dave Barthmuss, GM's Environment & Energy Communications
spokesman at the recent HOLLYWOOD GOES GREEN is a great car salesman.
He was a keynote speaker and panelist.
I am very committed and loyal to the EG Mobile, my 68 VW Van that
is a Celebrity Vehicle. Day by day i get raves for this People's car
that is pretty down to earth and easy to fix.
I would not trade the EG Mobile in for another vehicle. I will however,
drive one of the new GM Alternative energy vehicles that Dave
was tauting at Hollwood Goes Green.
I sat in the seat of one such vehicle that is being driven around Hollywood
entertainment activities. It runs on electricity and hydro power
as best as my non-mechanical mind can comprehend.
One reason the EG Mobile suits me is because with my unique body
posture--I have a fused back and my neck does not turn right or left--
I can drive it safely. Dave told me that GM has a special corps of engineers
who design vehicles for Special Body Types like mine.
Why not create a special seat for one of thes new model vehicles
that GM wants to start mass producing. I will drive it around.
I will tell those I know what I know now:
GM in on the right track.
Dave asked the the Entertainment Industry and the Eco-Media for help in getting the word out
about the new plug-in cars that run on electricity. He called the Electric
Car the Sexy Car of the future. Moreso, it is the sexy car we need now
amd Dave knows this.
GM spoke honestly and down to earth.
He told a story about his young teen daughter who came home one day.
She had just watched that movie about who killed the electric car.
She read her dad the riot act. Dave got the message. The same companies
who killed the electric car before, will bring in the electric car now and more.
I know that the Senate said no to the bill that the House and President
Bush requested. We need to get GM the money they need now to
make it through the next months. They need time to retool.
I would personally invest in GM. That is a stock that will go up.
Public support will come for the new vehicles. It is likely already here.
Our whole world has made some serious mistakes with our investing
in the petro vehicles that make Polar Bears sweat.
Now is the time for The Great Earth Clean Up.
We all are Wising up. We have to.
GM needs to elevate Dave Barthmuss and make sure what he is saying
is the primary company message.
We, as a nation, cannot afford, to let GM sink.
Give GM the money.
They will pay it back.
Invest in GM and the forward thinking
expressed by GM's Dave Barthmuss.

From a PRESS RELEASE for HOLLYWOOD GOES GREEN:
"GM is pleased to be the title sponsor of Hollywood Goes Green for the second year," said Dave Barthmuss, Environment & Energy Communications Manager at General Motors. "Our goal is to show the entertainment industry what GM is doing to reinvent the automobile and our company by quickly moving toward all sorts of electrically-driven products. We're excited to display the Saturn Vue plug-in hybrid, and offer attendees a chance to test drive the new Saturn Vue 2 mode hybrid and the emissions-free, petroleum-free Chevy Equinox electric fuel cell vehicle.
Bathmuss continued: "We hope to influence Hollywood in how it depicts green cars in film and TV, and encourage those making purchasing decisions for personal or business use to consider vehicles that use any kind of available electric technology. This collective effort is necessary to make electric vehicle technology -- be it hybrids, plug-in hybrids, fuel cell electrics, and even extended-range electrics like the Chevy Volt - commercially viable so they can be seen on the road in large numbers."

PROJECT DRIVEWAY UPDATE:
Listening and learning from 500,000 miles of emissions-free driving
By Mary Beth Stanek
Director, GM Fuel Cell Commercialization
Sometime next week, one of 100 Equinox hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles being driven in Los Angeles, New York and Washington, D.C., will drive the 500,000th emission-free mile of Chevrolet‘s Project Driveway. This is a huge accomplishment because we learn something about our vehicles, the hydrogen infrastructure and consumer acceptance of fuel cell vehicles with every mile driven.
Since the program began just over a year ago, more than 3,400 individuals have driven the fuel cell Equinox; either in short drives at media programs or special events, or as part of a longer-term loan. And with each drive we’ve learned something – most times it’s a pleasant surprise; other times not so pleasant. But each “surprise” has helped us identify needed refinements to the vehicles performance or resolve potential issues.
